Elsie Burt looked at Zhang Jun in front of him in shock. He wanted to try to catch up with him, but no matter how hard he tried, he was always in front of him.
Can't keep up.
As long as the first step is passed, it is almost impossible to keep up with Zhang Jun.
North Carolina puts up the defensive tackle block, and Tyler Hansbrough guards the block with his arms outstretched.
Zhang Jun took off early and went straight to the basket!
"It's the best offensive option."
Williams couldn't help but pushed the mirror frame and looked at the young boy on the court again.
When defending the University of North Carolina-Princeton system just now, Zhang Jun brilliantly used an early switch to destroy their second wave of impact, which has already surprised Williams.
Williams wouldn't be surprised if it was a junior or senior who made this defensive choice, and some sophomores with high basketball IQs might be able to do it, too.
But Zhang Jun is only a freshman, so it is really incredible that he can analyze the situation on the court so accurately and quickly make the most favorable judgment.
"Now he also chooses the best way to attack."
"Hansbrook's ability to protect the frame ranks first in the entire NCAA. It is not easy for Zhang Jun to break through his last barrier."
"But Zhang Jun took advantage of his height and arm length to take off and attack the frame early, so Hansbrough had to move to a favorable defensive position to re-intercept."
"First, such a mobile defense is easy to foul, and second, it is difficult to perform high-quality defense during the lateral movement, especially for the center forward."
Duang!
Taylor Hansbrough could no longer block Zhang Jun, but he still tried his best, resulting in a muscle collision between the two in the air.
The referee blew his whistle and the basketball flew off the court.
Ba Mote and Love pulled Zhang Jun up.
"Great job bro, this is a great breakthrough."
"Be careful, that Tyler Hansbrough wants to trouble you."
Zhang Jun nodded regretfully.
The ball almost scored 2+1 just now. I have to say that Taylor Hansbrough has something. After confirming that there is a high probability of being called a foul by the referee, he hit hard!
Of course, he didn't aim at hurting others. Zhang Jun could understand such a defensive intensity, and the opponent was indeed the strongest inside defender he had encountered so far.
The first half is over.
With the mature Princeton system, the University of North Carolina led 45:40.
This is the first time since the game outside the division that they fell behind at halftime.
"It's okay guys, take it easy."
"This is not a game of life and death, we can afford to lose."
"But I hope you can learn from this game and see the glory that the University of North Carolina, a top NCAA school, should have."
Alford squeezed the shoulders of Love and Mbah a Moute and said.
Love made mistakes in many details when defending the opponent's Princeton system. As the team's best defender, Mbah a Moute has been wiping his teammates' butts, causing his defense to be full of loopholes.
Alford's genial trust relieved both of them of their self-blame.
"In the NCAA, it is a prouder team than the University of North Carolina."
Sid explained to the players what Alford had just said.
"We are the first in the number of NCAA championships, and we are the first in the number of NCAA men's basketball championships. We should always remember this honor and pass on this record forever."
"In the second half of the game, Love, Mbah a Moute, Zhang Jun, you all come down and take a rest."
Alford is also preparing to send substitute players on the field, and of course wants to win the game, but there is no need to go all out.
"Coach, I want to stay on the court." Zhang Jun said suddenly, attracting the attention of everyone around him.
Alford was stunned and persuaded: "I didn't give up the game, I just don't think you need to take the risk of injury for such a game."
Zhang Jun raised his head and repeated: "We are number one in the number of NCAA championships, and we are number one in the number of NCAA men's basketball championships. We should always remember this honor and pass on this record forever."
"Coach, I want to win."
Le Fu and Ba Mote listened with enthusiasm, and the same fighting spirit emerged in their bodies. They clenched their fists and said.
"Coach, we don't want to end either."
"Let's go up and fight again!"
Sid turned his head to look at Alford in disbelief, and the other party suddenly smiled.
"What a likable bunch."
"Go!"
"You fell behind in the first half, call me back in the second half!"
The game continues.
Captain Aaron Afflalo passed the ball to Zhang Jun, and signaled his teammates to move forward with great experience.
The players on the field thought they were going to clear Zhang Jun's personal breakthrough on one side as in the first half of the game.
Therefore, all the inside lines were shrunk and a 3-2 zone defense was carried out.
"Love! Give me the pick and roll!"
Love has successfully reduced his weight to 124kg. At this weight, he is much more flexible on the field than before~www.mtlnovel.com~ so he can participate in more tactical tasks.
This pick-and-roll tactic was practiced by Zhang Jun and Love in private, and the cooperation between the two was very tacit.
"Defense!"
Coach Williams was very surprised by this sudden change of tactics. After all, they had never used this tactic in the first four games.
Zhang Jun's breakthrough ability is already very good, and Love's three-point shooting ability is equally outstanding. Now that the two are performing a pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, the defensive pressure on the University of North Carolina will increase dramatically.
boom! !
Zhang Jun used the pick-and-roll to quickly attack the frame with one step, and took off from the free throw line to explode violently in two steps.
The University of North Carolina did not dare to double-team Zhang Jun, which resulted in him gaining a breakthrough space after using the pick-and-roll. For a breakthrough master like him, this step space is undoubtedly a direct bonus point.
"It's impossible to let Love go, no, his current three-point shooting percentage is 40%, and he is the most accurate three-point shooter."
"It just so happens that this pitcher is an insider."
Coach Williams suddenly realized why Zhang Jun and Love were selected at the same time this summer.
It turned out that I wanted to create such a combination of internal and external.
Having such an extremely fit player in hand is far greater than any excellent tactical system.
In the ensuing game, Zhang Jun successfully broke through the basket three times in a row, and scored 2+1 against Taylor Hansbrough once, taking advantage of the trend to overtake the score.
The University of North Carolina had to start double-teaming Zhang Jun, but what followed was Love's indiscriminate bombing.
Love made 5 of 7 three-pointers in the half, and Love played the best performance of his career since the NCAA.
In the end, they successfully turned the tables and won 86:80.
Zhang Jun had 30 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, and Love had 21 points and 9 rebounds.
